Maria's B&B

Very nice accomodation. Good breakfast and service. The owner Victor is always ready to help for anything you need. Thank u for everything.

Finally getting around to leaving a review of the wonderful Maria’s BnB in Gozo, where I stayed last June. I knew I was in for a treat when I booked 4 nights at Maria’s BnB, but I was totally unprepared for how much I would fall in love with this charming place. From the moment I stepped in the front door, I could just feel the history of this yellow limestone farmhouse, especially when I was handed the big medieval keys for my room and for the main entrance. One of the owners, Victor, met me at the entrance when I arrived and gave me the grand tour of the farmhouse, showing me where breakfast would be, the common areas, guest kitchen facilities (guests are allocated space in the fridge and can use the well-appointed kitchen to prepare meals) and finally my wonderful room #4 on the 2nd floor, which had a spacious sitting area, double bed, large walk-in shower, and large, lit elevated alcoves that added to the medieval atmosphere of the room. Across from my room was a spacious balcony overlooking the countryside and the beautiful pool, a great place to relax after a busy day of sightseeing, listening to the birds chirping—all so very serene and tranquil. I really enjoyed the quiet, homey vibe of Maria’s, and the fact that guests, once checked in, pretty much had the run of the place, only seeing staff at breakfast time. Breakfast, served on a patio near the pool, was delicious: home baked loaves and breads, cappuccino, continental and English breakfast. I found it held me all day until dinner time. Maria’s BnB is well situated to explore just about any part of the island by car. The BnB is located in a quiet village and there is handy parking on the street right in front of Maria’s. Ta Pinu, one of Malta’s most sacred shrines, is within walking distance. There’s a handy food mart close by, too. When I first arrived, I asked Victor for restaurant recommendations and he recommended wonderful ones in Xaghra and Marsalforn, and I also found lovely ones in Xlendi Bay. The farmhouse is not wheelchair accessible nor is there an elevator; however, for anyone with mobility issues like myself, there are really sturdy railings on both sides of the staircase leading up to the 1st and 2nd floors of the main house, where the rooms are. This was important for me to know before I booked here. Thank you, Victor and Sonia (who I met unknowingly while lost in Marsalforn) for running such a lovely bed and breakfast. I truly hope to come back again soon.

We had the most wonderful time and thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Matias B&B on the beautiful island of Gozo. Breakfast was amazing with fresh local sweets and bread in addition to cooked to order. Victor is a wealth of information- and it was fascinating hearing about the rich local history and traditions from him. We will definitely come back!!
